Applying Hyperspectral Remote Sensing Techniques for the Detection of Hydrothermal Alteration Zones and Gossans in Northern Canada
DownloadSpring 2015
This thesis is composed of three chapters assessing the following specific goals: 1) To evaluate the potential of airborne hyperspectral remote sensing data and techniques to delineate the hydrothermal alteration zones of volcanogenic massive sulfide (VMS) systems in areas of abundant lichens on...

Applications of Remote Hyperspectral Sensing in the Characterization of Alberta's Oil Sands Tailings
DownloadSpring 2016
The bitumen production from oil sands surface-mining operations produces large volumes of mineral wastes called tailings. Characterization of the oil sands tailings is of importance to monitor their state for trafficability and reclamation issues, to assess the tailings operation performance, and...

Application of SWAT-MODFLOW Software to Evaluate Groundwater-Surface Water Interaction in West-Central Alberta
DownloadFall 2018
Responsible watershed management is emerging as a key issue as humanity continues to place increasing demands on water resources. To meet future demands, it has become imperative that water resources be managed as a holistic system rather than solely focusing on individual aspects....

Application of Ichnology Towards a Geological Understanding of the Ferron Sandstone in Central Utah
DownloadFall 2015
Ichnology has long been used as a tool to aid in environmental interpretation, but has rarely been used as an ethological assessment tool in the Cretaceous Ferron Sandstone of central Utah. This study focuses on using trace fossils with detailed sedimentological analyses to describe continental,...

Application of continuous wavelet analysis to hyperspectral data for the characterization of vegetation
DownloadFall 2010
This thesis explores the application of continuous wavelet analysis (CWA) to hyperspectral data for the characterization of vegetation at the leaf level. The first study dealt with the spectral detection of green attack damage (pre-visual stress) due to mountain pine beetle (Dendroctonus...

Fall 2014
We perform fully nonlinear simulations in two dimensions of a horizontally periodic, vertically localized, anelastic internal wavepacket in order to examine the effects of weak and strong nonlinearity upon wavepackets approaching a reflection level in uniform retrograde shear. Transmission,...
